    Hey lostboy,

    Sorry no, What did you hear? I know from personal experience H2S is taken a bit tongue in cheek in a few areas in Qatar, so Id be interested to know if there is any truth to it…I hope not though….

    Someone on board here said that there were seven deaths out in Qatar possibly Divers involved but it has been hushed up.
    Hearsay or truth ? ……………………..

    It was 4 guys killed by H2S in the same incident. One down and the other three went in to help. Got the pictures, wish they’d not been sent to me. A very sad situation.

    Hi Joeboy , Not wanting the actual gruesome details but just the facts .
    Was it on a platform or vessel ? Do you have a link ? Apparently there was a link to the news but removed after a few hours.
    I just find it so Hyporcritical of the Oil and gas companies to preach safety , LTA and man hours but will quite happily Blanket news when there is a death offshore.
    PM me if you wish.
    Regards

    You sure it wasn’t a usual offshore "slant" on this story?

    which happened a couple of weeks back?

    It was a group of guys, looks like land based by their PPE or lack of. One went down into what looks like a well control area, a metal box below surface level so would have acted as a sump to store the gas. He’s dead, human nature takes over and the others go to help and they’re dead too. One of the poor sods didn’t even make it to the bottom of the staircase. Very sad indeed, sorry no links.
